You and I, we're words without a rhyme -
Two images caught in time;
A picture to the eyes of the blind.
You and I, we're two of a kind.
In my heart you'll be until we meet;
Till I come home and stumble at your feet.
A feeling so loud yet so discreet;
Growing forevermore with every heartbeat.
Girl, you are so insatiably fine;
How I long to run fingers down your spine!
Alas! I yearn that you were mine -
I'd hold you till the end of time.
If I could have the night and make it mine,
And tell the stars to fall in line -
I'd tell the moon to go and shine,
On the girl I love, with a heart that's mine.

Promises
In countless dreams, I've had you near;
Held your hand, away from fear.
You killed the pain that I couldn't cure,
And together fore'er we'll endure.
Through whate'er life will have us bear,
All the while not stopping to care.
We'll make it thru the nightmare
Of a life that isn't always fair.
Kill the demons that wish to impart
Anger and hate to keep us apart.
I promise always with a loving heart,
I'll turn our love into living art.
Comparable to the likes of Da Vinci;
In all his glory, and with poetry,
Carve our name amongst the history
Of great lovers, and the tragedy
That befell them all and had them fall -
Only to rise again to answer the call
Of true love, and in a world so small,
I know you and I, we can stand tall.
'Cause you give a fix, an insatiable bliss;
A rush of blood that I'd always miss.
On the day we had our first lil' kiss,
You saved me from the eternal abyss
That raged within me, knew no bounds,
Where life was all sadness and frowns.
Been there, done that, made the rounds,
And yes everyone has ups and downs,
But I was down and out, couldn't get up.
All that changed, when you showed up -
I saw hope and a real reason to get up
And to tell myself, "I've had enough!"
I'm alive and living now thanks to you,
I can look forward to something new;
A chance to believe in something true,
Other than the lies of the world I knew.
So don't ever go and leave me standing,
We'll work thru the pain and misunderstanding
That always comes when you're falling
In love with someone so worth loving!
Held your hand, away from fear.
You killed the pain that I couldn't cure,
And together fore'er we'll endure.
Through whate'er life will have us bear,
All the while not stopping to care.
We'll make it thru the nightmare
Of a life that isn't always fair.
Kill the demons that wish to impart
Anger and hate to keep us apart.
I promise always with a loving heart,
I'll turn our love into living art.
Comparable to the likes of Da Vinci;

Random Verses (8)
Amidst the anguish and despair I looked her way,
And as her hand left mine I wondered in dismay:
Why must I leave her now, and why can I not stay?
If only my heart could find the right words to say!
In the darkness I find my peace of mind,
Therein I wonder; could you be mine?
A face so tender, that's almost divine -
If I searched my soul, it's you that I'd find.
There was once a time my lady when I would swear,
My adoration of thee was born of the flesh.
Alas! But now away more miles than I can bear,
I know better, for the days bleed my heart afresh.
I see your face as I look around,
Into the darkness that had me bound -
To a dying heart, without a sound,
You came along, turned my life around.
And as her hand left mine I wondered in dismay:
Why must I leave her now, and why can I not stay?
If only my heart could find the right words to say!
In the darkness I find my peace of mind,
Therein I wonder; could you be mine?
A face so tender, that's almost divine -
If I searched my soul, it's you that I'd find.
There was once a time my lady when I would swear,
My adoration of thee was born of the flesh.
Alas! But now away more miles than I can bear,

Into the darkness that had me bound -
To a dying heart, without a sound,
You came along, turned my life around.

Random Verses (7)
He knew 'twas there, but not where it lay,
Subdued the while he moved with life's sway.
Then it came to him, 'twas one fine day -
The love he had, that he'd kept at bay.
When winds were fair, he was satisfied;
Calm and content enjoying life's ride.
But as came sorrow, the rising tide,
Showed feelings he could no longer hide.
I share my plight with the night's shadows;
Feed my curse - all to drown my sorrows.
My demons dance whilst I serenade;
A final encore and thus I'll fade...
As I sing my song would you tag along;
If but only in dreams - like we belong
To a play's romance by a poet long gone?
We'll dance thru the night as the song goes on...
Random Verses (6)
It starts to rain as I try once more,
To relive seeing the face I so adore;
I close my eyes, and like times before,
Wish I was there, right outside your door.
Tonight again I'll do the deed,
So my princess I beg you heed:
As my dream takes flight to where you're stayin',
Would you open the door, and let me in?
A part of me wants to lie down and cry -
Feed the despair that prevails within.
Still though I'm weary I cannot deny,
That the thought of you keeps me livin'...
In Parting
In the likeness of you, I'll see shadows through the night;
With thoughts of you, keep the embers burning bright.
Now that you've left, just one thing seems right -
That in the darkness of today, you've found a light.
Someone to hold your hand, in sadness and delight;
In the light of day, and tempest of the night.
And if life brings you down; you're numb with fear,
Take a look at yourself and shed not a tear.
For by some twist of fate, if cupid's arrow,
Stains your eyes with even a hint of sorrow -
I will curse the gods, and let them know,
That I'll give my today, and my tomorrow -
To give you happiness; a reason to smile -
Yes, I will gladly walk that extra mile.
And as I sing my song, I wish to thee:
Love and happiness, but please remember me!

Random Verses (5)
Sometimes I surrender, try to take a fall;
Give up hope - give in and chance it all.
Sometimes it hurts, can't always stand tall,
But you'd pick me up, you're a real doll.
Why would I want to live forever,
If I walk the path thru life's endeavour,
Without her hand to hold - a true lover?
Yes, I'd rather hold on till the life after.
Although thou hath all but shunned I
As of late, still I do not lie -
Thy essence wilt serve to occupy
My thoughts, fore'er until I die.
Every now and then I reminisce,
About the past and what I've missed -
I was naive to have missed the bliss,
Of giving you love and a... kiss?

Random Verses (4)
The skin that be your outer sheath,
The loving heart that beats beneath;
In fact even the very air that you breathe,
Akin to beauty like a flower's wreath.
My words are yours and yours alone;
I will it not that they be shown -
To seeing eyes other than your own,
For then my pledge to you be known.
My nights are long as always,
Contemplating on past spent days.
'pon vague images amidst the haze,
I cry your name lest my sanity fades.
Our paths they met for times bittersweet,
But Providence be praised we could ever meet.
Through wind and rain, sun and sleet,
I'll remember till we bow at the Lord's feet.

Random Verses (3)
'What is the meaning of life?' I ask,
The purpose beneath this sun I bask...
For within this realm I find,
Many a thing I cannot leave behind.
Heaven forbid you throw a tantrum;
Call people gay and live a world apart -
Get any angrier and the day will come,
When in boundless fury you will fart.
'tis but a moment I wish to take,
To share what's been as of late -
Of pain, sorrow, joy and rapture;
The many things in human nature.
I beheld, around me darkness -
Bathing in shadow's tender caress.
The moon above me seems to shed a tear,
So do I, wishing you were here.
The purpose beneath this sun I bask...
For within this realm I find,
Many a thing I cannot leave behind.
Heaven forbid you throw a tantrum;
Call people gay and live a world apart -
Get any angrier and the day will come,
When in boundless fury you will fart.
'tis but a moment I wish to take,
To share what's been as of late -
Of pain, sorrow, joy and rapture;
The many things in human nature.
I beheld, around me darkness -
Bathing in shadow's tender caress.
The moon above me seems to shed a tear,
So do I, wishing you were here.

Random Verses (2)
They shalt close, these eyes of mine;
Mine shrivelled hands wilt lay at rest.
Still I fear not that day's tempest -
For by then I shalt fore'er be thine.
Mine outstretched hands reach for thee,
But the fates defer, they will it not;
As thou rise to greet me as thou ought,
I find mine feet carry me away from thee.
I stand aghast, mine eyes go blind,
Asking reason upon destiny's word.
Can'st human will the least perturb,
Fate that maketh me leave thee behind?
If life be so pointless and numb,
Would'st thou ever need me?
For with solemn words I assure thee,
At your slightest call I shalt succumb.
Mine shrivelled hands wilt lay at rest.
Still I fear not that day's tempest -
For by then I shalt fore'er be thine.
Mine outstretched hands reach for thee,
But the fates defer, they will it not;
As thou rise to greet me as thou ought,
I find mine feet carry me away from thee.
I stand aghast, mine eyes go blind,
Asking reason upon destiny's word.
Can'st human will the least perturb,
Fate that maketh me leave thee behind?
If life be so pointless and numb,
Would'st thou ever need me?
For with solemn words I assure thee,
At your slightest call I shalt succumb.
